Bummer you had to back down on the tires but score on the wheels :thumb:
Thanks, I don't know what it is about the bigger center bore in the wheels but it sure does make the whole wheel look bigger.
On another note: the packing peanuts I ordered finally came in!
It's the Evo Pro Series tire carrier. I got it installed and I have to say it went pretty smooth, but it's not the first tire carrier I've installed either. When I first got into jeep stuff I liked the terrorflex tire carrier because it kept the tire close to the body, was simple, was single hand operation and looked like factory. Then I started reading about the issues terrorflex had and went with the crawler concepts tire carrier. when the CC carrier was released I thought it was the closest thing to the bees knees so I settled. But then EVO came out with this carrier and it had everything the terrorflex carrier had but was a single piece , American made, and produced by a top quality manufacturer. I didn't take any pictures of the install but I will post some pictures of it tomorrow. If the Evo carrier wouldn't exist I would just keep the crawler concepts carrier. The only issues I had with the crawler concepts were the cam washers would eventually spin and it would come out of alignment, it didn't take but 3 minutes to readjust, probably had to do this once every two months. The second issue was the small link that connected the actual carrier to the gate would become supper squeaky so I would spray it with silicone spray, as well as the bushings while I was at it. I hope I don't have any squeaks with the bushing on the Evo, it has less moving parts so I don't see too many issues popping up
